Ice Nine Kills – The Nature of the Beast (Official Music Video)

A killer tune by Ice Nine Kills that vividly captures weighty themes like the corruption of power and the eeriness of herd mentality through razor-sharp riffs and theatrical arrangements.

Inspired by George Orwell’s novel, it superbly fuses a violent, ominous sound with a literary concept.

This track opens the album Every Trick in the Book, released in December 2015, and it went on to define the band’s subsequent direction.

The song also received a music video in March 2017.

It’s a must-listen for anyone who wants to enjoy dramatic song structures and an aggressive ensemble.

As the standard-bearers of “TheatricoRe,” a metal sound that channels the world of horror films, Ice Nine Kills command overwhelming support.

For the official soundtrack of the hit horror film Scream 7, released in February 2026, they contributed “Twisting The Knife.” The headline feature here is that the guest vocalist is none other than actress Mckenna Grace, who also appears in the film! By blending the band’s signature theatrical metalcore sound with Mckenna’s richly expressive vocals, the track generates a gripping tension that feels like you’re watching one of the movie’s chase sequences unfold.

It’s packed with the series’ trademark flourishes that horror fans will surely grin at.

It’s a must-listen not only for those who want to savor the film’s afterglow, but also for anyone who loves rock with dramatic twists and turns!
